You Give, We Give

About

As a nonprofit 501(c)3, in addition to entertaining, we believe our productions can and should do more. In 2015, SDMT launched the YOU GIVE, WE GIVE campaign to prove that theatre connects us and our audiences to bigger issues within our community. Not only does this program raise awareness and support for our nonprofit partners throughout the community, it also provides access to theatre to groups who might not otherwise have the opportunity to attend.

Current Partner

Musical Theatre and Jazz are two American-made art forms that are celebrated around the world and composers like George Gershwin, Cole Porter and Irving Berlin are only played on KSDS when it comes to radio here in San Diego. KSDS, also known as Jazz 88.3 on the FM dial, is one of only a handful of member-supported, public radio stations in the country that play Jazz 24/7. This award-winning, not-for-profit radio station utilizes educational outreach as a major part of their mission. It is why we partnered with them for our “You Give, We Give” program. Jazz88.3 will receive a percentage of your donations that will go towards their ‘4E Initiative.’ The four E’ s stand for Educate, Enable, Excite and Engage. For more information on this initiative and the radio station please go to Jazz88.org
